This week has been a crazy one! After my workout slump for two weeks after my marathon, this was the week to get my butt in gear, and it has hurt oh so good. The week ended with a little get together at one of my friend’s houses. I have a Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Chip [...]

The first hill took a good ten minutes of constant grinding to get up, then another hill, another, then another leading into a slight downhill into a village. The worst was over, right?!
